FOUND! Phillips Rough Service LED Bulb

60W equivalent, burns for 18,000 hours-virtually no heat. 800 lumens and cost $1.26 to burn it a year. Available only at Pep Boys. A welcome addition to any drop light.

Re: FOUND! Phillips Rough Service LED Bulb

this should be a welcomed addition too any drop light.

i never understood why they are called "drop lights"
they should be called "dont drop lights".

Re: FOUND! Phillips Rough Service LED Bulb

They are called drop lights because when you drop them, no matter what bulb, they burn out? Or because you drop them on your arm and they burn your skin?

I'll have to look for an LED to put in mine either way.

Re: FOUND! Phillips Rough Service LED Bulb

I have been putting compact flouresents in mine for a couple of years. Light is good, they don't burn out when you drop them and best of all when the light falls down on your arm while your hand is in a spot that will take what seems like forever to get out of you don't get branded by the housing.
